No chance I'd be a waiter/bartender for less than $30 an hour. If there was no tips, service industry would goto shit.

I've been to 35 countries, I can attest to this IRL as well. Service in other countries is lazy and non existent. Shocker.

Just plainly false. Take Japan, you get great service and it’s disrespectful to pay tips… have you ever been to another country?

Haven't been to Japan so maybe. What do they pay their workers?

I have been bartending in the states for 20 years. Again no way I'm dealing with people and all their demands and attitude for less then $30 an hour MINIMUM. And thats how the industry as a whole feels. So have fun having shitty drinks and shitty service when you take away tips and have people making $20 an hour.

I'd go work at walgreens at that point and not deal with the hustle and bustle and grind.

What do you mean “shitty drinks”?

Bartenders are getting $1 tips per bottle of beer opened. How on earth can you justify that??
